Chapter 212 – Death Comes Down From the Sky (02)

When the story about the resurrection of the Demon King began to emerge in earnest, opposition first appeared as if others could not easily accept it.

“Isn’t this a theoretical story? Even if we recreate the place at that time, it’s unlikely that the devil will come back…”

“Since there is already a passage, it will depend on how you induce it. Above all, if you are changing the dukedom’s territory like the demon world itself… You will be able to ‘attract’ the demonic energy of a demon king who has already died and disappeared.”

Even though they opposed my opinion, I couldn’t ignore the [Star Wizards] Who were using their power behind the scenes.

Moreover, Alex’s father, I didn’t know much about him, but judging by the respectful expressions other people gave him, he seemed to be an extremely famous wizard.

“Hmm…”

After listening to their explanation, the generals were also starting to notice.

“How long?”

“It’s the 7th.”

“7 days. If we start the offensive now, will we be able to arrive?”

In response to Sailian’s question, the generals here shook their heads in unison.

“Answer whether it is possible or impossible.”

“Without being able to properly respond to the demons… It is impossible.”

“If the lives of all troops are generously sacrificed, mutual annihilation will be possible. However…”

Why should we replace all our troops and prevent destruction?

“If you are fighting inside an enclave, it is of no real help unless you are an elite troop.”

“Then that means only elite troops should move.”

“If there was a way to demolish the Enclave, I could lead elite soldiers and insert a special force to prevent the resurrection of the Demon Lord…”

Sir Alfred drew several shapes on the map.

“I don’t know if they go inside the duke’s castle and attack using special means. It would take quite some time to demolish the enclave from the outside.”

If I had the Valkyries or my holy sword, it would be possible to demolish it, but if it wasn’t from the inside, I had no choice but to crack it from the outside. Even if I repeatedly hit it with star magic, it would endure by expanding the enclave again.

Moreover, since the Duke faction plans to hold out for 7 days, they will be stranded if they give up counterattacking and continue to attack the Enclave.

“…You can only let at least one person inside.”

“Is that possible?”

“If another [Star Wizard] Helps, one with the [Star Wizard] Ability can send a satellite down. If it falls at the correct location, it will be possible to temporarily demolish the enclave.”

“Father…”

“Of course, in that case, you cannot return because mana cannot be recovered inside the enclave…”

There was no way a wizard with low mana could survive in a place full of so many demons.

They will already be torn to pieces and dead before our allies arrive.

“It’s okay. I’ve already seen her daughter her grow up, and even though I have not seen her get married, I’ve seen her bring her her her her husband her.”

Sir Alex pounded his chest as he consoled Alice who was worried about him.

“Your Majesty, if you leave it to me, I will risk my life to break through the barrier.”

When Sir Alex said he would sacrifice himself, Cylian looked confused and Alice quickly became tearful.

“Well, shouldn’t I do it?”

I also had the [Star Wizard] Trait.

“…”

The expression on Alex’s father’s face changed subtly as he proudly stepped up and made a sacrifice in response to my question.

“It seems possible, but…?”

“No!”

Alice immediately screamed and expressed her opposition, and at that moment, Alex’s father grabbed her chest.

“…I can… And he can’t?”

“Well, that’s not it, I mean…” ” “

“They say there’s no point in raising a daughter…”

“So…”

It seemed as if an empty black hole was forming in Sir Alex’s eyes.

*

The original plan was for Sir Alex to ascend to satellite orbit and use his own body as a bullet to launch a hand-to-hand attack on the Duke’s castle… No, the Demon Castle.

When I turn into a star and deliver the final blow, we promised to go in at the right signal, but if you think about it, wouldn’t it be better for me, who can still show off my fighting power even if I fall , to go on a rampage inside rather than pour in and burn my mana?

Above all, if Sir Alex fails, Alice has to jump right away, which means her reserve power she disappears.

In that case, I concluded that it would be better for me to jump and if there was a problem, drop [Star Magic] To the location I guided and receive fire support, so I ended up jumping.

The process requires about three days, so preparations must be made before then, but the other heroines had returned to their respective forces to join the military and join the duke’s castle.

In order to enter the duke faction’s territory in the north, they attack in three directions excluding the north. On the left are the combined forces of the [Sword Masters] And the [Shadow Family], And on the right are the guard golems created by the [Golem Queen]. It is made up of elite mercenaries from the Alphyrio mercenary group.

In the center, of course, the Cylians take the lead, with royalist soldiers as the main axis, and the [Battlefield Valkyries] Are divided into three areas to provide support to deal with the demons.

The troops going into this operation will at least start from the elite soldiers, elite swordsmen, and elite mercenaries with the name ‘elite’, and most of the named forces from each faction were scheduled to fight as the main force.

And it was I who had to start all of this.

“Huh…”

Fortunately, the place I had to fall from was the Duke’s castle spire.

In the past, it was a place where criminals were imprisoned, but it was remodeled into the shape of the Devil’s Castle and was a structure that protrudes from the outside. An enclave surrounding the duke’s territory was formed based on this place.

And as multiple enclaves overlapped, they were completely synchronized with the Demon World, but even if the enclave was released in that area, the interior could not be restored to its original state unless the duke castle itself, which was already symmetrical with the Demon King , was destroyed.

However, it will be possible to attack the outside of the duke castle, and if the shape becomes distorted and the match rate with the devil falls, the degree of demonization inside will decrease.

What I did was the beginning and the most important point of everything, and if I failed, Father Alex would throw himself and demolish the Enclave.

If even Alex’s father fails, Alice will throw herself.

So I must not fail.

In order to complete all preparations for the final battle, I stood in front of the heroine’s room that I had not been able to capture until the end… No, I had captured it but lost it.

Knock knock.

“Come in.”

There is no resentment and venom like before, but I still hear an awkward voice.

The most necessary ability in this battle. In order to protect my body from attempting satellite descent by burning all of my mana, and in order for me to survive there as my [Shadow Ninjutsu] Has become weak due to demonization.

I needed swordsmanship.

I came to Marian’s room to regain the [Master of the Sword] Trait.

“…”

Marian was feeling a little restless, perhaps because she had already been told why I had come.

Her her current affection level her her her is around 2.1.

It can’t be said to be low, but considering my previous relationship with her, it couldn’t be said to be that high either, but the other heroines were giving it an average of 3.5 out of 3.0 no matter what happened.

“Do you need my power?”

Marianne carefully placed her hand her on her her collar her her her, since I already knew how to acquire her traits her and powers her her her.

To give strength.

Even if she doesn’t have that much affection, she is willing to give herself for me and for victory.

But that’s not what I came here for.

If I had truly become so evil and acted as a lustful demon like the old man inside me said, I would have plundered Marian and other heroines’ characteristics regardless of their feelings or affection.

However, the path I chose was the path of companion training where we grow together by increasing the affection of the heroines. That’s why my choice is.

“Marian.”

I hold her hesitant hand and say.

Round 1, just like I did the first time.

“Please be with me from now on.”

“…”

Marianne’s eyes open wide and a moment later she has tears streaming down her cheeks.

“But… Will it work?”

“Yes.”

“Is it okay for me to stay with you in the future?”

“I came because I hope you will.”

As I took his outstretched hand of her, Marian came closer and now pressed my lips to hers without me having to lift my heel.

Tiring-

– Obtain [Master of the Sword] Trait through the effect of companion trainee (26%) –

Even if we don’t overlap each other’s bodies, if our hearts are connected, the characteristics come to me.

Jijijik…

[Inclination] Is something that is difficult to change. But that doesn’t mean it’s absolutely either.

Is the affection you get because it matches her personality so well from the start, or is the affection you get regardless of your personality real?

My conclusion is, if either one loves me.

And I was of the opinion that it didn’t matter as long as I could love.

She slowly parted her lips, but Marian was still shedding tears.

However, she knew that she was not crying out of sadness, so she took her time and waited.

Little by little, her her affection her level her her her rose again, and when she passed three levels, the [Sword Master] Trait exceeded 50%, and Marian’s heart opened like a dam bursting in her heart of.

Tiring-

– Obtain [Master of the Sword] Trait through the effect of companion trainee (100%) –

Once again, our hearts were connected and the [Master of the Sword] Trait came to life.

It is a trait that my body has already learned once, so if there is an opportunity to connect my mind, it will come back to life.

‘In the end, what matters is the heart?’

Whisk.

However, I couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed to see Marian knocking me down with a little force.

“Ah, I have already recovered my characteristics…”

Although she said that, Marianne’s eyes were not as old as before, but she was kissing me with her new red face, as if she was holding back something incredibly embarrassing.

‘I’m so spoiled’

I’m not giving it a calculated hug in order to gain characteristics.

I really wanted to connect with her, so I hugged Marian tightly.

‘…If this happens, the mind and body will eventually come together, just in a different order…’

As I take off Marianne’s clothes her her her, layer by layer, Marianne also begins to take off mine.

In the past, it seemed like we were a bit combative with each other, but now that we’ve grown together…

“Oh, it hurts… It hurts, so take it slow… Ugh!!”

No, this is attacking too violently!!

“Leaving it like this… Reminds me of the old days… Huh… Huh…”

Because the affection level is over 4.0, the look in your eyes! It’s back to the old days!

‘Woah, is Marian really Marian… !’

Still, somehow.

“Please be kind, sister…”

It wasn’t bad.
